After the great virus storms of August 2003, most ISPs including the one that hosts AstroDatabank.com decided to put extra thick walls around their servers. As a consequence, the Web Update code in the AstroDatabank software could no longer connect to our web site to get the updates. We had to rewrite this code to work in the more fortified web environment. By following the steps below, you can download a program patch and get your Web Update feature working again in a few minutes.
